The Thirteenth Amsterdam Colloquium will be held from December 17-19, 2001 at the
Universiteit van Amsterdam. The Amsterdam Colloquia aim at bringing together
linguists, logicians, philosophers and computer scientists who share an interest in
the formal study of semantics of natural and formal languages. The spectrum of topics
covered ranges from descriptive (semantic analyses of all kinds of expressions) to
theoretical (logical and computational properties of semantic theories, philosophical
foundations).


The program of the Thirteenth Amsterdam Colloquium consists of:

*  General Program, which includes  invited lectures by:
  Reinhard Blutner (Berlin) - Gennaro Chierchia (Milan)- Ruth Kempson (London) -
Angelika   Kratzer (Amherst)

*  Workshop on Semantics and Cognition, with invited lectures by:
  Ted Briscoe (Cambridge) - Simon Garrod (Glasgow) - Jonathan Ginzburg (London) -
Pieter  Muyskens (Nijmegen)

*  Workshop on Games in Language and Logic, which includes an invited lecture by:
  Rohit Parikh (CUNY) - Robert Stalnaker (MIT) - Robert Sugden (East Anglia)

*  A special evening session, organized by the Evert W. Beth Foundation, which
features the  Beth Lecture  given by:
  Hans Kamp (Stuttgart)

Furthermore, there are 32 contributed papers. The complete program and abstracts are
available at the website, including information on how to get there, and possible
accommodation.

Following the Amsterdam Colloquium, on December 20 a one day event will take place,
in which the Spinoza project
Logic in Action of Johan van Benthem is closed off.
